Bug#321936: Installer failed to recognize hard drives



Dear Geert Stappers,

The output requested is provided as attachments by this mail. However, I like to point out that starting the installer using the 2.6 kernel already solved my problem, installing debian flawlessly.

Cheers,
Sjoerd Hardeman

Most likely is that not the right kernel module is loaded for the disc
controller.

Please provide the output of

  lsmod
  uname -a
  ( lspci ; lspci -n ) | sort

on the working Fedora system.
